Reflection

Reflection:

This course has gone by completely fast. I feel that I have gained so much as an individual and feel the need to carry out these tools througout my educational expereinces. This will allow me to better enhance my communication skills and bring forth a sense of overall compassion for individuals, all while finding a means to bring forth numerous possibilities, commitment, and solutions to problems faced. I feel that this has provided me with a better sense to how certain families that respond and how to handle that response with great care and action. This has truly been a great experience that i have enjoyed. All of my classmates have truly helped along the way with the great discussion forums as well!

Team development

Forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning are the five stages of team development. I feel that these stages represent how a "high-level" performing group should be. 

I feel that high-performing groups are hard to leave due to the fact of making positive connections with individuals that share the same drive and force that everyone shares in common. It creates a positive and inspiring group formation that can lead to having a positive light shed on everyones life.  It also establishes a high norm that creates an almost trusted means to complete a task and strive for a complete and better grade. I feel that these groups are hard to leave because everyone strives for a goal that is above average. Connections and friendships are formed as well leaving a positive impression and mark upon the world. 

While working on my master's degree program, I feel that I have a support group. I truly enjoy the discussion because they are interactive as well.This also places an impact on my life and individuals life's due to that fact that we all share something in common. This is "education". I truly enjoy reading the stories and life experiences as well during the overall discussions shared by my classmates. Adjourning is an essential stage for team work because it sets up a focal point for all of the group members.

Resolving Conflicts

A conflict that occured throughout at School was with one of my colleague teachers. During class I was in the middle of teaching and another student from a different classroom knocked on the door. He said that Mr. L wanted him to come in my classroom to take a test, and i informed the student that I was in the the middle of preparing my students for the library. Later on that day I received an evil look by this teacher. I later inform him that as per meeting earlier, extra students were not allowed in the classroom, and plue my students were going to be out of class any way. We began to talk and matters were erased as a misunderstanding. I feel thatit is best to communicate with others so that meands of knowing how to move past a situatuin can occur and become more open and honest. Along with having a reciprocal benefit of knowing how to communicate with others.
